Q
I manage a retail store. Sales are down across the company and
there are rumors they may be closing some of the stores. Two of
my friends got laid off within a month of each other, and they
worked for the largest company in the industry. I’ve been in
retail for 28 years. It’s all I’ve ever done, but now that retail jobs seem to be
going away, I have no idea what I’ll do if I get laid off. I’m not sure where
to look or what type of job to look for. What advice do you have if I get laid
off?
Get excited about the next adventure! If your future is no longer
with your current company, know the next best thing is out there.
Really! AND you have a treasure of tenured experience to unlock
many career opportunities.
